Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground chuck or ground beef
  • 1/2 cup panko or other breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 1 large jar marinara sauce
  • 12 dinner rolls or slider rolls
  • 2 cups grated mozzarella

Directions

  1. 1

    Mix the meat with the breadcrumbs, milk, garlic, salt and pepper, and knead the mixture together with you hands. Roll into heaping tablespoon-sized rolls.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 1 minute. Add the meatballs between the onions and brown for 1 minute. (You might have to do this in two batches, depending on the size of your skillet.)

  3. 3

    Pour in the jar of marinara and shake the skillet gently to mix. Put on a lid and allow to simmer for 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    When ready to serve, cut each dinner roll in half. Place a handful of grated mozzarella on the top and bottom of each roll. Spoon a meatball with the sauce onto the bottom bun; top with the top bun. Serve immediately!
